Hi All,

I moved my FTTC service to a new provider around 3 weeks ago. I noticed that G.INP had been removed once the connection had swapped over. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to re-activate? My local cab is Huawei so G.INP should be supported & I also have the latest firmware on my unlocked HG612 modem.

I have attached my stats below in case they provide any further information.

Many Thanks

Approx 3 days.

Approx 3 days. 

...........or as I like to call it, 4 weeks

I'll wait another week to see if anything changes. I used to sync at 72Mbps(download) a couple of years ago but looks like crosstalk has become increasingly worse.

I am in the same boat, went from 76mb to 38mb, 76mb upgrade is due for tonight. This is my plan to remove banding that was stuck on my line.

Just waiting for G.INP to be enabled. I am on a Huawei cabinet as well.

gazaai, are you on Plusnet?

[daveesh1]

If you line is banded then a change of product or speed will not remove the banding. Even though there is some kind of DLM reset it does not remove it. The only way to removed it is to have an engineer visit for the banding to be removed. I speak from experience.

[William Grimsley]

Yes, though if gazaai is on the 40/2 service provided by Plusnet then I can't see any banding in place?

[daveesh1]

William

 now that I have looked at it again you are correct, the speed is limited because of the product not banding.

[j0hn]

says he's on Plusnet on mydslstats

what exactly are you looking for too see banding? the sync speed?

Not entirely true. I was banded on Plusnet for about a year. Switched to same product on Sky and the DLM reset which happened during the migration also removed my banding.

Plusnet use the DLM Speed profile and Sky use the standard profile so when moving from Plusnet to Sky the DLM profile was changed so that is a automatic DLM reset.

@ maniac886 it can take up to 4 weeks for G.INP to be applied back onto your line when migrating from one ISP to another on huawei cabinets

[andyfitter]

Sure, that makes perfect sense. Was just making the point that it doesn't necessarily need an engineer visit to remove Banding.

Interesting about the DLM reset issue. My OR engineer who came yesterday did tell me that despite what TalkTalk told me any ISP can do full dlm resets and in his experience SKY is one which often does do it, although he also said some times they do it at precisely the wrong time

That's what Glen told me (the Openreach engineer who visited here a few months ago). ISP's can do the reset remotely and he was saying that he didn't need to be assigned the job because of that.
